Chapter Five Little Fox Girl

  When Marlon saw the young Minotaur, Auster, again, he was amazed to see that the originally retired and scrapped Steam Locomotive, Saber-toothed Leopard III, was roaring mechanically under Auster's control.

  However, Ma Long didn't think the one who reactivated the steam engine was Aister, because from a distance he saw that the steam engine had an energy crystal installed on it, and next to it was a figure wearing a half-new Lorain military uniform with no insignia or hat, a... a fox spirit uncle covered in oil stains.

  Alright, the fox spirit uncle and all that, was just Ma Long's subconscious reaction to his Huaxia-style thinking, but in reality, he was just a beastman with a pair of fiery red fluffy ears on top of his head.

  Of course, the fox ears weren't what caught Malong's attention the most, because behind this fox-eared beastman uncle with fiery red fox ears, stood a little fox-eared loli who couldn't be more than ten years old, with extremely cute sapphire blue fox ears and soft long hair, her face was so delicate and pretty that it was almost nauseating.

  At this moment, the little figure that had emerged from behind Fox Spirit Uncle's back was carefully observing the Sword Toothed Leopard motorcycle which kept spewing out white misty steam.

  Undoubtedly, this is a pair of fox tribe father and daughter, even if their hair and fox ears are completely different in color.

  Ma Long thought so in his heart and walked quickly past.

  "Aster, I'm back!"

  Far away, Ma Long waved at the cow-headed boy riding on a steam train.

  Ma Long's greeting not only caught the attention of the Cow Headed youth, Aister, but also shifted the gaze of the oil-stained Fox tribe uncle and the adorable little fox girl onto him.

  So Ma Long smiled and nodded at the fox tribe uncle and little fox girl whose names he still didn't know.

  Aister scanned Malong from head to toe, then jumped down from the steam train with a thud, and rushed to Malong's side in three strides, patting Malong's shoulder vigorously: "Brother, don't be sad! This must be that Eiffel who doesn't know her stuff! How despicable, what a name that doesn't match reality!"

  "Hmph——" Mistaking his good brother Ma Long, Ai Si Te, who had also sought to publish at the Emerald Pattern Publishing House but was rejected, snorted in anger, a characteristic of the Bull-headed people when they are enraged, before continuing: "Hmph——, this isn't wartime now! If she doesn't publish it, it's not like it's the end of the world. We're not out of options, brother. My old man's factory needs an accountant, thirty Lanters a month... and it comes with food and lodging. Actually, I already talked to my old man about it last night, if you're willing, you can start working tomorrow!"

  Looking at the bull-headed youth with a face full of resentment, Malong, although he was no longer the original Malong-Liszt, still felt a sense of gratitude in his heart.

  "Aister, I appreciate your kind intentions, thank you! However..." Malong first expressed his gratitude to Aister before turning the conversation around: "You misunderstood Miss Evana, she didn't reject my submission, but has already signed a publishing contract with me."

  "Ah ha?!"

  The young Minotaur's eyes widened in disbelief: "Brother, you're not kidding me? Or was it that red-haired girl who fooled you?"

  Aster had enough reason not to believe it, because Marlon's back-and-forth time was too short. How could a contract be finalized in such a short period of time?

  However, Ma Long then used the draft contract of "The Little Prince" to prove to Aisi that he was neither deceived nor deceiving.

  "Alright Esther, let's talk about the publication later, shouldn't you introduce me now?"

  He put away the contract for publishing "The Little Prince", Ma Long smiled and nodded towards the old fox standing next to the steam train and the little vixen.

  "What? Ah——" Estelle shook her head, which had already grown half a foot long curved cow horns, and turned to the oil-stained fox tribe uncle with some embarrassment: "Sorry, Mr. Bernard, I was rude. Let me introduce you formally, Mr. Bernard, this is my good friend and brother Marlon-Lyster; Marlon, this is Mr. Bernard-Yeberle from Rouva State, Mr. Bernard helped me fix this damn motorcycle!"

  "And also my beloved little treasure, Amy Yeberle." The old fox tribe uncle who had been squatting to examine the steam engine finally slowly stood up. He first turned his head and looked at the delicate little fox girl behind him, saying so.

  "Aimi, doesn't it mean blue iris in beast language? It's a nice-sounding name."

  Ma Long praised.

  The lovely little fox girl Aimi with blue hair and blue ears narrowed her adorable sapphire-blue eyes, flashed a sweet smile at Malon, but didn't say anything.

  Bernard Yeberle, wearing a half-new and half-old Lorain National Defense Army assault jacket, didn't say anything as if he hadn't heard anything, and even subtly shifted his body to block Marlon's line of sight towards the lovely little fox girl Amy.

  Then, under Ayster's somewhat embarrassed gaze, this clearly retired military fox uncle Bernard-Yeberle stretched out his right hand stained with black oil towards Ayster: "Your car is fixed now, repair fee... five lant."

  It's clear that Bernard-Joubert didn't have the slightest interest in getting to know Marlon, not even bothering with superficial pleasantries. He only fixed Auster's steam car so he could reach out at this moment.

  "You——"

  Bernard's attitude obviously made Alistair very unhappy, but it was probably because of some promise he had made before. Although he was very unhappy in his heart, he still had to take out five one-rand notes from his pocket and hand them over.

  Bernard, who had just received the repair fee, finally nodded at Marlon as a greeting, then turned around and was about to leave with the lovely little fox girl Amy.

  But just then, Ma Long finally discovered - on the left chest of Bernard-Yeberle's windbreaker, three pale white mechanical gears were embroidered together!

  Inheriting the memories of Ma Long-Li Ze, Ma Long clearly remembers his father, who died in battle wearing this same three-toothed wheel pattern Lo Ling National Defense Army uniform.

  This uniform belongs to the Lorainian Defense Force... 7th Armored Cavalry Division, 3rd Steam Armored Cavalry Brigade.

  However, the 7th Armored Cavalry Division's 3rd Steam Armored Cavalry Brigade was disbanded two years ago after being annihilated by the Gray Knights of Helfa - Marlon-Lyster's father also died in that battle.

  Why is this old uncle Bernard Yeberle still wearing the uniform of the 3rd Steam Armored Cavalry Brigade?
